Notes
- This issue takes place one day after the events of Superman Vol 3 #52, some time after Justice League Vol 2 #50, but before the events of Justice League Vol 2 #52.
- The return of Wally West in the epilogue of the "Life" story also take place at the same time of the epilogue of Titans Hunt #8 where the yellow lightning, which heralds Wally West's return, is shown falling from the sky.
- This issue also reveals that the voice that Barry heard during the final moments of the Darkseid War belongs to the then Speed Force-imprisoned Wally West.
- Despite his interference was implied in the epilogue of Justice League Vol 2 #50, this story reveals for the first time that Doctor Manhattan altered the history of Earth 0 in the aftermath of The Flashpoint, leading to the birth of Prime Earth. The return of Wally West from the Speed Force in this story causes the "Rebirth" of Prime Earth whose continuity slightly aligns itself to New Earth's.
